Placing Drawing Elements

To place a drawing element onto the board, click the desired drawing tool from the toolbars and then left-click

a position on the board to begin placing the drawing element. Some tools, like the pattern and pre-dened curve

tools, place the drawing element with a single click. Other tools, like the line segment and the shape tools,

require one or more clicks to place the various vertex locations of the drawing element.

When a drawing element is rst placed onto the board, it is displayed in its selected state as a solid white line

bounded by a set of Control Points. Control Points may be individually manipulated, or the entire drawing

element may be moved by left-clicking on the solid white line or within the bounds of a closed drawing element

and dragging. Right clicking anywhere else on the board or off the board will un-select the drawing element. In

the un-selected drawing state the drawing element will appear as a black dotted line.

A different drawing element may be selected by clicking its carved area or its black dotted line. If the drawing

element lay wholly within the area of a currently selected drawing element, then the currently selected drawing

element may need to be deselected rst. The selected state of a drawing element may be toggled by holding

down the CTRL (z) key while clicking on the drawing element, or all drawing elements may be deselected by

clicking off the board or by selecting “Deselect All” from the right-click context menu.

Pre-dened curves such as spirals and sine waves display with a yellow box around them. The edges of the

box may be dragged to expand or contract the drawing element, and the Red Control Point may be dragged to

extend the number of loops.
